Just Another Monday

I only had one class today. So despite still not feeling the greatest I dragged myself out of bed and got ready to head to campus. I was rather pleased to find that it was gloriously sunny outside and quite warm. After checking my schedule I realized that this one and only class that I had to walk to campus for was actually the one that I had liked. Last week I only made it to some of my classes because I was sick, but this class was one I had gone to and had really liked. I particularly liked the teacher. She was everything a fun and inspiring teacher should be. She was confident and pretty and had beautiful red hair ;) So now as I'm remembering all this I am now excited to go to this one single class all the way on the other side of campus. So I set off and joyfully walk to class. I am a bit early so I find some classmates and get my choice of a seat (right in the very middle by the way, if you wanted to know). I start to tell a friend how awesome this teacher is and how I think this class is going to be tons of fun and now we're both excited. The classroom fills up and the teacher comes in and gets set up. Before she begins the lecture she gives some announcements, "For any visiting or non BComm students there has been a special section set up which will meet downstairs, please excuse yourselves now to go find that class." Darn it. Segregation was supposed to be history here people. They split the Irish BComm students into one group and visiting students into another. With another teacher, in another room. Might as well have made it a different class. All hopes and dreams dashed to pieces in the first 5 minutes of class. Great, now what did I come to campus for today? I thought of Anne Shirley and felt that I too was now in the depths of despair. Like I had lost a kindred spirit. In the teacher, but also in everything I was hoping for that class to be. So my classmates and I picked up our things and brokenheartedly made our way downstairs. Way to point out the Americans. Now we are stuck in a class with all the other visiting students. This was so not the point of studying abroad.

But I still have a few things to look forward to. Glee is on tonight :) Happy Monday!
